Solid-state fermentation of different lignocellulose substrates using Phanerochaete chrysosporium

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in degradation of lignocellulosic materials due to their use as substrates for biofuels and different bioproducts production. Apart from agro-food industry, wood industry is also a generator of large amounts of lignocellulosic residues. The aim of this study was to perform solid-state fermenation of Phanerochaete chrysosporium using different lignocellulosic materials. Solid-state fermentation of P. chrysosporium was carried out using sawdust from three wood species (beech, cerris and oak) as substrates in laboratory flasks at 27 ºC for 45 days. The chemical composition of samples collected before and after fermentation was analysed, e.g. dry matter content, ash, total extractives, cellulose, lignin and nitrogen contents were determined using standard methods. The obtained results indicate good degradation capacity of P. chrysosporium when cultivated on cerris and beech sawdust.
